Snowbound Yosemite National Park closed indefinitely

Yosemite National Park is now closed indefinitely after being inundated by heavy snowfall.

Some parts of the park are covered in as much as 15 feet of snow.

The park closed at the weekend when heavy snow storms reached California.

Park officials haven’t given a reopening estimate.

“Park crews are working to restore critical services so visitors can safely return,” the NPS said.

Snow had blocked nearly all roads.

Last year, 3.6 million people visited Yosemite National Park.

It is the sixth most popular national park.
